If you don't like the 270 that is find, but it is your loss. When I die I will still own a 270 Win. which is the best thing to ever come out of the Winchester brain trust. I have never owned or seen the need for a standard 280 Rem. as long as the 270 exist.


Once upon a time, one very early campfire participant met one idiot how owned a .270, (perhaps a brother or father-in-law) and at that point he decided all .270 owners are gay. He's been spreading this BS for over 55k posts.

Truth is, on this subject your position is much closer to reality then his.


You didn't use logic or reason to get into this opinion, I cannot use logic or reason to get you out of it.
